Restored here to its original length—unseen since its 1969 theatrical debut—with renewed color and remixed sound, this Oscar-nominated Western retains all of the drama, visceral effects, and cinematic innovation Sam Peckinpah poured into it. A gang of aging outlaws, who realize the future has no place for gunslingers, try to pull off one last heist. They end up in Mexico, pursued by bounty hunters and one of their own they betrayed. Peckinpah intended to shock audiences with the real violence of gunfighting in the old West, rather than the cleaned-up Hollywood version, and used multiple angles and slow motion to bend time. This two-disc set includes deleted scenes and three documentaries, including the 1996 Oscar-nominated short The Wild Bunch: An Album in Montage.
